In jupiter dasa, ketu bhukti will be the fourth sub period.For avoiding ill effects of jupiter placed in unfavourable places in one's astrological chart, one has to plant thekku maram (tectona grandis) in river sides and pond sides as it needs more water as described in virutcha shastra.It is called தேக்கு மரம் in Tamil.

The plant has to be planted on first saturday of jupiter dasa ketu bhukti.A day before plantation, little bit of horse gram should be immersed in water.The next day thekku maram should be planted and horse gram water should be served to the plant.Horse gram should be given to cow.
